To get the best of the Marmaris-Datça Peninsula, one should spend some time staying in the city as well as the countryside. Stay with the locals in a beautifully restored villa while enjoying some traditional cuisine and local produce!
Turkey's foremost tourist destination, sophisticated and cosmopolitan, Marmaris is indeed the jewel in the crown of the Turkish Riviera. Located at a distance of 60 km from the Mugla province capital in the south-western region of Turkey, it is perched at the point where the Aegean Sea meets the Mediterranean Sea, on the largest natural harbor in the world. It is encircled by the Gulf of Gokova in the north, the Mediterranean Sea in the south, the Datca peninsula in the west and the Koycegiz Lake in the east. With pine covered mountains that slope gently into these waters and its many scenic bays, Marmaris is quite lovely. Select from our range of Marmaris Hotels and book online today! Marmaris offers guests with some excellent Marmaris Hotel options and the selection of Marmaris Resorts will impress the traveller looking for a relaxed Marmaris Holiday!
In the olden days, all life in Marmaris revolved around the ancient castle on the hill, and most of the houses were built there. Today, these houses are being restored and preserved as models of Mugla architecture. It is very interesting to explore this residential district and the many small, quaint streets that lead up to it on one of the Tours of Marmaris. A Marmaris Holiday should always include at least one of these Marmaris Tours!
Today, Marmaris has a well developed tourist infrastructure with Hotels in Marmaris to suit every pocket, including Marmaris Luxury Hotels and Marmaris Resorts, interesting restaurants and a myriad of entertainment options. It has a beautiful and long promenade from the marina to Icmeler, right around the bay. Traffic is not allowed on this promenade. The beautiful forests on the slopes of the mountains surrounding Marmaris are a great place to explore with Marmaris Tours. The picturesque harbor contributes significantly to both the beauty and the economy of the region.
Marmaris is a famous yachting destination and has a fine marina which can accommodate up to 700 yachts. As a result of this, Marmaris is home to many foreign yacht owners and has evolved into a truly international resort, hence many Marmaris Villas and Marmaris Holiday Resorts! Marmaris Clubs offer plenty of activities for the sun-seeker and those wanting a real holiday! Apartments Marmaris are available for those wanting a bit more privacy. Our Luxury Marmaris Hotels will enable guests to really unwind and relax, or perhaps a Marmaris Apartment will do the trick!
One of the main reasons tourists flock to the region is the beautiful Marmaris Weather throughout the year. While it is obviously attractive in summer, flooded with tourists bathing in the sunshine, strolling along the waterfront and browsing the Marmaris shopping and restaurant strips, Marmaris is equally preferred in winter. Marmaris winters are mild, the waters are still warm, the hotels in are quieter and it is sunny enough to get tanned. Moreover, since it is less crowded the local people are more friendly, hospitable and receptive. Quite a few of the Marmaris Resorts close during winter so be sure to check with our local team for more information before booking your Marmaris Holiday.
Driving from Marmaris into the direction of Datça you will pass Balikasiran, a small isthmus, so small that the fish can skip from the Mediterranean Sea on one side to the Aegean Sea on the other! Just beyond this the Datca Peninsula commences. Datca, the town and district, is situated in the middle of this peninsula and can well be called an island, as it is linked to the mainland only by the isthmus. It is the focal point around which all activity is centred. Datca hotels are readily available and offer great services.
The best way to travel from Datca to Marmaris is by road. The drive offers an opportunity to observe minute details like the change in the nature of the vegetation from that found on the mainland. The historic city of Cnidos is located at the tip of the peninsula.
We are a local team and offer an excellent range of accommodations and pensions in Marmaris and Datca, as well as surrounding towns and villages. Be sure to check out our Marmaris Hotels or Datca Hotels online booking page! Marmaris Accommodation and Marmaris Turkey Hotels are provided on our website, including Holiday Village Marmaris!
The Marmaris Datca peninsula is a beautiful paradise located in the south-west corner of Turkey, perfect for both families and independent travellers who want to soak up the sun and enjoy the stunning scenery. Whilst Marmaris has developed over the years into a modern holiday resort, Datca is still an untouched wilderness of all things traditional and Turkish!
